In my opinion, one of the biggest eyesores in Thailand is utility wires. No matter where you look, the air above the streets of Pattaya are simply filled with them... hundreds of them.I believe that primary culprit is phone wires... and probably a lack of knowledge (or caring) on the part of the utility companies (phone, electric, cable together) to even be able to guess which wires go where or belong to whom.
Anyway, aside from the visual clutter these wires make, they are also dangerous and probably explain about 90% of my internet outages and power outages.
Walking Street business owners and Pattaya City News are teaming up to make City Hall aware of this problem (as if they could have missed it previously) in hopes of making Pattaya — or at least Walking Street — a better-looking city.

Man the ulity wires were one of the first things that caught my eye 2 1/2 years ago when I first walked down the streets of Bangkok and Pattaya. I couldnt believe my eyes and have many pictures of them. I especially liked the circle on 2nd road and the circle (by Bobs BBQ) The wires were about 3' from the ground,LOL.
BTW I had the biggest Hamburger of my life at Bobs BBQ. IT WAS THE SIZE OF THE PLATE!!! LOL
